Freedom of speech for a free people

Liberty no longer resides in the state named after America’s Founding Father, George Washington. A 60% vote recently passed a law that abrogates the constitutional 2nd Amendment and violates said amendment’s “shall not be infringed” clause.

In a state that has named towns and lakes after the word, “Liberty”, liberty now knows no home in Washington state. It has been taken-over by avowed communists, with only one city with a sworn law officer who refuses to enforce it. We’re hoping others will step-up and show some courage and do the same.

I can’t make legislation but I can recommend it, which I have. What do you think?

Ordinance Number: __________An ORDINANCE of the City of Republic, which shall be known and may be cited as the “2nd Amendment Sanctuary City Ordinance.” To prevent federal and state infringement on the right to keep and bear arms; nullifying all federal and state acts in violation of the 2nd Amendment to the Constitution of the United States and Article 1 Section 24 of the Washington State Constitution.WHEREAS, the City of Republic believes that:A. The 2nd Amendment to the Constitution of the United States reads as follows, “A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.”

B. Article 1 section 24 of the Washington State Constitution reads as follows, “The right of the individual citizen to bear arms in defense of himself, or the state, shall not be impaired, but nothing in this section shall be construed as authorizing individuals or corporations to organize, maintain or employ an armed body of men.”

C. All federal and State acts, laws, orders, rules or regulations regarding firearms, firearm accessories, and ammunition are a violation of the 2nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution and Article 1 Section 24 of the Washington State Constitution.
